Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. The Homage looks like a penguin to me. I think the decision comes down to how badly do you want the full suspension vs a suspension seatpost? Is it worth the extra weight/cost of the Homage? Only you can determine this.Hi all,
I am in the same situation Nevo4 HS vs Homage4 HS.
Pros for Nevo:
Bettre rear rack (more kg on top of it)
Could also have a childseat there
Pros for Homage:
Full suspension
Bettre looking
What would you go for?![]()
Thats true. But how good is the suspended seatpost if for example going off road?Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. The Homage looks like a penguin to me.

Specialized Turbo Vado S IGH.OFC not, been also looking at the Moustache J all / Mardi / Lundi. But non of them is HS and they dont have CX / speedmotor...
Are you able to try any versions of both? My local shop had a Nevo and an older version Homage so I was able to try both back to back though they weren't spec'd like I want. The Nevo was slightly more comfortable position wise. But, the Homage full suspension still won the day for me and was worth the extra cost. I want to do more commuting than ever before so pot-hold/road comfort is important. I currently have a suspension handlebar stem and seat-post on my bike from Kinekt, they are arguably (and according to my shop) better than the seat post the R&M includes. Based on my experience with them, they help, but they're not really smooth in the same realm as the Homage. Hopefully you can find some to try near you!Pros for Nevo:

Thank you! I like the look of Homage. Might go to Sweden and try them both. But you cant have a childseat on Homage4? Is that right? I have a toddler and sometimes we go out on a ride - thats why I asked..Are you able to try any versions of both?

I believe you can use a Thule Yepp with the MiK system for it!But you cant have a childseat on Homage4?
The New Wheel is a great shop(s). Got some service work done while in CA. Wish they were local to me.I believe you can use a Thule Yepp with the MiK system for it!My kid started riding her own bikes at 2 so we havent needed a seat in many years so I'm not 100% sure.
Yeah, theyre my shop and Brett & Karen are so great. Ive bought 8 bikes from them over the years!The New Wheel is a great shop(s). Got some service work done while in CA. Wish they were local to me.
Nice!!! Did not know that, on R&M site it just said ”no” on the childseat. Thank you!I believe you can use a Thule Yepp with the MiK system for it!My kid started riding her own bikes at 2 so we havent needed a seat in many years so I'm not 100% sure.
My experience has been that 'RM says no' may lead to denial of warranty if there's an issue.Nice!!! Did not know that, on R&M site it just said ”no” on the childseat. Thank you!
